It is the last Day in February Donald Trump has been President for a total of 6 weeks.

Now in some parts of my country that raises a cheer, in other parts it raises a shrug with a wait and see how it goes attitude, there is even a part of my country that could care less who is President…

Now because of my general nature what I find amusing though are the foam at the mouth loons of the left, who really for the most part don’t even realize that the foam is actually dripping from their lips and they long ago turned quite rabid. Take for example these paragraphs from the Boston Globe, it is rather typical of this rabid lunacy.

This not an unreasonable argument. It’s true that not every Trump supporter is outwardly racist or a misogynist. I’ve spoken to many of them. A few said awful things to me, but most don’t fall easily into the caricature that has developed around them. Most didn’t support all of Trump’s policies (to the extent they knew what those policies were) and some had legitimate grievances. Many were partisan Republicans who couldn’t imagine not voting for a Republican presidential candidate. But one thing they all had in common was an extraordinary ability to compartmentalize Trump’s worst excesses.

Whatever the reason Americans voted for Trump, we know that every one of them chose to support a candidate who made repeated bigoted, xenophobic, and misogynistic statements. They supported a candidate who mocked a disabled reporter, demonized an entire religion, made veiled anti-Semitic comments, scapegoated undocumented immigrants, and bragged about sexually assaulting women. Even if one puts all that aside (though I’m not sure how that’s done), they voted for a candidate who lied on a daily basis and who regularly showed he was demonstratively unqualified to be president.

Many continue to support him, even though Trump’s presidency so far has been defined by more lies, rank incompetence, and nasty policies that target the most vulnerable people in our society.

Now just look at the “tone” of what is said. You can read all of this rabid scree at it’s source here and a similar example from the NYT here. What you will find is madness run amok. To many members of the left think that this is normal and reasonable thought, that it is ok to refer to and label their fellow Americans in this manner.

Like it or not half the American voting public disagree with your description of them. Not only do they disagree, they take great offense. That YOU because they disagree with you, that YOU, call them Racist, Misogynistic, Xenophobic, Bigots. The Left needs to get over itself, the Right did.

There were 3 viable candidates. A Leftist, A Conservative, and a Capitalist Showman. Well the Capitalist Showman Won, and a large part of those that voted for the showman were Democrats. The Union Laborers voted for him in States that he Never should have won. That’s how he carried Pennsylvania.

Tonight is a State of the Union Address Trump will speak before Both Houses and whoever decides to show up from the Supreme Court. It will be aired on every channel at 9pm EST. Trump is going to lay out a 3 part speech. I don’t know what he will say, I don’t think he knows what he will actually say other than in outline, but I know it will be a good speech. With lots of meat that both sides will chew on whether there are any details or not that are included with any of it’s points.

The democrats are Liable to stage a Demonstration tonight. Not Clapping and not standing are the accepted gestures for any sort of protest, even rarer an outloud verbal response. I find the latter of that group very offensive including when it was done to Obama Alito was out of Line.

It is time my fellow Americans for us to view ourselves, our demeanor, our own descriptions of each other…. We are a nation of shit hoarders and individualists with abundant fools on all sides. The hard right swallowed our tongues and accepted the nations choice it is time my hard left brethren do the same.

Trump has done almost all he can as President to put the ship into the direction he said he would. It is now in the hands of Congress. It is time for Congress to Act. If you put forth 6 Bills to Repeal Obamacare while Obama was President you should have sent one of those forward already to be signed by Trump. By not sending one of them forward Congress only reaffirms that everything they promised over the last 6yrs were a LIE….. and the People were right to elect Trump.

Ryan says he will deliver both Obamacare Repeal and Tax Reform before August break. I don’t think he can deliver one of them by then. From this point on for the rest of the year EVERYTHING is in the hands of Congress. The President has done his job Domestically, it is now Congress’s job to Deliver their desires and the Presidents together in a form that can be passed into Law.

The Democrats rallied and in Obama’s first 2 years changed one 6th of our economy and placed their dream-child socialized medicine like a boot on the throats of every American, and they did it without a single Republican Vote. Now is the time to take that boot off of our throats and stick it somewhere else…. I have severe doubts that these clowns will deliver.

To be a good actor, you have to be very good at pretending. In order to be very good at pretending, you have to empty yourself of your thoughts and then channel the words and emotions of a pretend character, someone you imagine.

Needless to say, introspection is not a quality leading to acting awards; introspection tends to inhibit and to make one self-conscious.

Actors are not philosophers. Actors are just actors. To be good at what they do, they must be empty shells channeling the words fed to them by introspective and – perhaps – deep thinking writers.

It is my opinion, that actors do best when they pretend to have glamorous lives – lives filled with mystery and romance, physical beauty and daring. In other words, Hollywood was “great” when it gave ordinary, hard-working people something to fantasize about, an escape from the daily grind. Sure, it was all pretend…..but, oh! …what fun it was!

Over the past 20 years or so in Hollywood, political activism has replaced glamour; “making the world a better place” has replaced entertaining. What we have now in “tinsel town” are empty shells pretending to be more than they are, hoping to be mistaken for deep thinkers.

It’s sad, really. Entertaining the public is no small thing and one could even say that entertaining the public is a noble endeavor if done right. If actors really want to make the world a better place, they should leave off their sad attempt at shaping politics and go back to making entertaining movies, movies that make the ordinary – the daily grind – more palatable.

It could be that Scotland is about to face ANOTHER referendum on Independence.

Theresa May is preparing for Nicola Sturgeon to call a second independence referendum, according to reports. The First Minister is expected to call another vote on on Scottish independence at the same time the British Government triggers Article 50 next month. The Prime Minister could reject the demand or accept it and risk the future of the United Kingdom, the Times report.

Great – I think the PM should accept it with the following three explicit conditions.

“Moonlight has won best picture at the Oscars – but only after Faye Dunaway initially said La La Land had won. Warren Beatty was handed the previous winner’s envelope, containing a card saying “Emma Stone, La La Land”, resulting in the error. The team from La La Land was in the middle of its acceptance speeches when the mistake was discovered. Stone said backstage afterwards: “Is that the craziest Oscar moment of all time? Cool! It’s going to be history.”

The curse of Trump. I didn’t watch the trash but understood Jimmy Kimmel launched several “racist” jibes against the President. Oh – how daring of you, Jimmy, you’re such a cutting edge kind of guy.

“If I see another 45-year-old white woman from Williamsburg saying ‘black lives matter,’ I’m going to punch you in the mouth,” the “Saturday Night Live” star said during her recent four-night stint at New York comedy club, Carolines on Broadway. “Stop doing that.”

Incredible. Imagine if it was a white women threatening to punch a BLACK woman in the mouth!

US President Donald Trump has announced he will not attend the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on 29 April. The glitzy event draws celebrities, journalists and politicians, normally including the US president. Mr Trump said he would not attend a day after the White House excluded several major broadcasters and newspapers from a press briefing. He has frequently described negative news coverage as “fake”.

I’m not sure WHY attending a dinner to back slap hacks is such an important part of being US President and clearly neither does Trump.

On Friday, the Trump administration blocked a number of media outlets, including the New York Times, CNN, BBC and the Guardian, from an off-camera briefing with press secretary Sean Spicer. Spicer later said the White House planned to “aggressively push back” against the press. “We’re just not going to sit back and let false narratives, false stories, inaccurate facts get out there,” he said. On Friday night, Trump kept up his attack, using Twitter to say: “FAKE NEWS media knowingly doesn’t tell the truth. A great danger to our country. The failing @nytimes has become a joke. Likewise @CNN. Sad!”

Instantly the fake News Media are portraying this as a BAN on them. It isn’t. They were preluded from an off-camera briefing – others were present. This was the Trump administration saying they are not going to let these anti-Trump activists slither in and out of press briefings as they wish. I could not be happier about it.

Three people have been seriously injured after a man drove a car into pedestrians in a square in the centre of Heidelberg.

The attacker fled, armed with a knife, before being surrounded by police outside an office block. After a stand-off, the man was shot once by an officer, according to video of the incident posted on social media, then taken to hospital.

Norbert Schaetzle, a police spokesman, told a local TV station that the man had used a rental car, according to Deutsche Welle. H

Hail the weekend. As usual at this time of year my horizons stretch little further than a few beers and men with odd-shaped balls. I hope you have as much fun.

We will get back to the Rock n Roll one day, but these magic few minutes popped up on the iPod thingy this week. Haven’t heard it in years but was very glad to do so again. It’s Leonard Cohen’s version of a song written in London in 1943 by an member of the Resistance. Who was presumably in the wrong country. It’s mesmerising in my opinion.
